  • (December 8, 2009) It is with the deepest regret that we announce the passing of Professor Jack Hale. His continued support during the years was felt under a great many number of forms, starting with his direct support to the Mathematics Department in its launch of its Master Programme in 1984, and including his support to the Centro de Análise Matemática, Geometria e Sistemas Dinâmicos through its Advisory Board.

    His contribution to the Development of Department of Mathematics was recognized by Instituto Superior Técnico with the award of a Honoris Causa Doctorate through Universidade Técnica de Lisboa in 1991. In 1999 the Center organized at IST an International Conference in his honor under the title Dynamical Systems and Evolutionary Equations. It is impossible to overestimate his contribution to the development of CAMGSD.

    A biography is published in JDE 168, 3-9 (2000).

Introduction

The Center for Mathematical Analysis, Geometry, and Dynamical Systems was established in 1991. It is a research and scientific training unit developing its activity in mathematics with special emphasis on the aspects of nonlinear analysis, dynamical systems, geometry, and topology occurring in connection with areas relevant for several fields in science, engineering and applications.

It is a goal of the Center to invest in the development of research and post-graduate training in these areas through postdoctoral and visiting faculty appointments, as well as fellowships and assistantships for graduate students, and the conditions for research activities of its members at high international level. The Center's activities include a postdoctoral training program; a visitors program; weekly seminars; workshops; tutorials and summer schools targeted at advanced PhD students and post-doctoral fellows.

The Center is administered by an Executive Comission whose current President is Professor Carlos Rocha.

Advisory Board

Until the passing of Professor Jack Hale (see News) the Advisory Board was composed of:

Victor Guillemin
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Jack K. Hale
Georgia Institute of Technology
David Kinderlehrer
Carnegie Mellon University

Funding

The Center is funded mainly by Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia through the POCTI/FEDER Program.
